The microvascular changes in these cases are highlighted by the OCTA scans. Even if we are far from the determination of a direct link between COVID-19 and these retinal disorders, we could hypothesize that the vascular alterations associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection could be a possible risk factor for both AMN and PAMM.</p>","PeriodicalId":19595,"journal":{"name":"Ophthalmologica","volume":" ","pages":"181-191"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10614461/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9987904","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
